To be honest Blowout needs to find a way to cut out the host from ever receiving the bulk of the PayPal for the cases, anything after the cases should go to the host for shipping, supplies, fees, profit w/e. Since you have to buy from blowout to be able to group break anyway the money should go into a blowout account directly from the people who buy-in to the break. Its way to easy to get your feedback / itrader w/e up high enough for people to have no problem tossing you $1000's without worry. Maybe its a pipe dream & I have no idea how hard it would be to do something like this but if you have to get the cases from BO something like this would eliminate being able to take the money & run. Now taking off with the cases is a different story all together

This isn't even feasible, it would become a huge headache for blowout. Keeping track of payments and everything.

Yeah its fine you have someone once in a while being the bad egg, everyone is protected under paypal so its not as big as issue as some people make it seem. Im honestly surprised he only did a 3 caser if this was his plan. Hope not but doesn't look good.

That sucks royally, you join how many breaks and this is the one you slip up and get burned on, sorry man.....

People in here are protected under paypal but in his other breaks, he held cards and it's past the 45 day window. Those people will never see their cards or money. I'm sure BO is on top of the "holding cards" policy and they'll fix it but it sucks for those members.

If a quick google search could have prevented this I think a overhaul of the verification process for group breakers is needed. Nothing to the extreme of a escrow service but they have to find someone that is technologically savvy enough to search someones record for free.

I thought I'd escalated to a claim over a week ago, but I got an email last night saying that it was finally escalated to a claim (I didn't actually do anything...maybe they had to wait a certain amount of time before actually doing it).

Just got my $ back to let you guys know that filed 10 days ago-I know some of you wanted to know when refunds started coming-if you mention it was a break, you won't get a refund-just say product not delivered (did mine on phone and said I didn't receive Bowman baseball cards I bought).
That being said, blowout should check out backgrounds of hosts they do not know well. Not trying to skip anyone, but Houdini, DThimesch, Nordy are beyond reproach. Seems like questions should have at least come up on someone like Snowboy. At the very least, they should have googled his name and address,etc.

My 2 claims are still pending... Does anyone know what Blow Out's response to this was? Most in this break will be covered through PP. but what about those of us who couldn't file a claim for Snow Boy's previous breaks? Is there anything they can do? Some sort of raffle or something? I know of others in my situation.

Yeah, I was in a monthly break with one or two paypal payments that are beyond the window to get your money back. I never had any of my cards shipped from the breaks, as he was supposed to be holding them and shipping them later.

I hate to say it, but I don't think there's anything Blowout can or even should do for cards being held. That was an arrangement between you guys and Byron.
